False. L demand proof. Surely you
can give a few dozen names out OF the

hoods, and fiendish fabricatiops. Give

and the name of the prominent Nor
mon." Of course you can't do it.
'As a matter of fact, comparatively
few polygamists support their wives.''
Will YOU give the names of a few Nor
mon husbands who do not support their
wives? Until you do. in what Zig hit and
by what term should you be regarded ?
"False in one, false in all"
Not long since l visited a polygamist
endowed with thirteen wives, every one
of whom is a beast of burden. The
youngest one bears children. He is
well to do, yet they all live like pigs, /
took lunch with the master. The first
wife waited on the table. The plurals
ate in the kitchen. This scene occurred
net many miles from Salt Lake. The
man and his wives are Danish. They
are not women; they are cows" Kate
Field, if you had stated that you had
visited and taken lunch with Nor
mon endowed with 1000 wives;
that every one was near
sighted, bald-headed and bow-legged;
that they all wore gold-rimmed spec
tacles, knee breaches, and porous
plaster on the small of their backs; that
they lived on roots, acorns and spent
malt, seasoned with New England nut
megs and Kate Field salt; that their
labor consisted in tanning and selling
the skins of their children and of pass
ing Gentlles, in imitation of your own
Tewkesbury; and that they
went around on all fours, slept in
stables and hog-pens, and barked like
dogs at your approach, you would have
told as much truth and no greater
falsehoods than are couched in this
snaky and devilish whole-cloth
untruth. This statement appeared
over your signature In the
New York Weekly World of Feb
Iuary 4th, 1885. You knew of the ex-
lstence of this. many-wived family, and
took lunch with the polyga-
nous husband, yet you uttery failed to
apprize Zane, Ireland or Dickson of the
existence and location of these bold
ViOlators OF the Edmunds law! At that
time the courts were in the midst of
their prosecutions for unlawful cohabi-
tation and you were the daily bosom
of the prosecutors; yet you
lid not point out to the noble and
